game to the Hawks and lapped the home team in grand fashion, 50-14 in a meeting between two undefeated District 26-3A foes.

“We’re not there yet,” Head Coach Matt Monzingo said. “This team (Wimberley) is strong, big and very balanced.”

“When they stopped Zach (Henshaw), we weren’t as tough as we needed to be,” Coach Monzingo reflected.

Wimberley seemed like they were in the Hawk’s huddle as they had four defensive backs ready when the Hawks tried a play that worked earlier this year against Luling. The first play action pass that scored on Luling was an interception against Wimberley.

The Bracken Christian Warriors defeated Holy Trinity-Temple last night at the Warrior gym as the School and Parents honored the Seniors playing their last home game in season play.

The good news would be there will be a second act, as the win enabled BCS another home game in the playoffs, Tuesday October 25th.

Bracken has been on a tear the last half of the season after a heartbreaking loss to Kerrville OLH in their first District game. They now are riding a nine game winning streak.

The Warriors have not tasted defeat since as they have dug, given assists to others, had aces up their sleeves, block parties, and of course all of the above leading to kills for the wins.

Canyon Lake could not get back on track in the second half as Wimberley Freshman only needed one score winning, 6-0 at Hawk Stadium.

You know how it is when you sit down to write a composition or essay and once the juices start flowing the Pen you are using runs out of ink.

That was the dilemma for the Hawks as the game progressed the offense just ran out of ink and the paper could not be finished.

The unfortunate thing about the game Thursday night is that the game did not finish at halftime. If that would of been possible, then the Hawks would of won on penetrations.

“We are so excited about last night!! Both JV and Varsity persevered for our district title,” Head Coach Shaunna Teuton said excitedly.

The Warriors started the match losing their first game, 23-25.

“I think we were working out the nerves in the first game,” Coach Teuton said. “We were making some mistakes that we don’t typically make and they came out with a fast lead. We worked hard to catch up, but never passed them. At the end of the first game we had the momentum, though not the win, and went with it. They were close games and we had to work hard.”

Bracken has been on a roll after losing their first District game of the year. The Warriors have been unbeaten since the loss to Kerrville OLH four weeks ago.

RB Eduardo Covarrubias paving the way for Zach Henshaw

Canyon Lake Hawks brought their own Breaker System to Navarro and lit up the Panthers for a 41-26 hard fought victory.

The Hawks had 29 points last season in the fourth quarter for all of their games. In this contest alone, Canyon Lake finished with 20 and now have garnered 62 points, doubling last year’s total.

“It feels good to win a game for a team that is hard to prepare for,” Head Coach Matt Monzingo said. “We had ball control too in the second half and moved the chains.”

Finish is the ‘mantra’ for this year’s club and the conditioning and focus has once again catapulted the undefeated Hawks to 6-0 and waiting for Wimberley next week.

Canyon Lake keeps raising the bar and has a realistic chance of reaching the .500 mark (all time) with a win against the Texans. (20 wins and 20 losses)

GERONIMO, Texas – “2 and 0” were the cries being heard from Panther Stadium Thursday night as the Canyon Lake Freshmen Hawks improved to 2-0 in district play and 3-3 on the season after beating the Navarro Panthers 21-8.

From the opening kick the Hawks made play after play on defense to stymie the normally methodical yet effective Panther offense as Navarro was only able to rack up 95 yards of total offense in the game.

“We read our keys and did what we talked about in practice for the past two weeks,” coach Luke Chapman said after the game. “Credit to the kids for taking coaching and executing on the field. We did a great job of being physical and each man doing his job.”

Canyon Lake could never get control of the line of scrimmage in loss to Navarro

Colin Baker Scores Fourth Quarter Touchdown

Panthers at Hawk Field Thursday night, 32-13.

Navarro did one thing well, and that was run the ball.

The old adage of run the same play until the other team can stop it was alive and well at Hawk Stadium.The Panthers averaged over nine yards per carry while the Hawks tried to find the ball.

Oh yeah, the Panthers did something else very well and that was hiding the ball from the Hawk defense. By the time CL figured which running back was running, it was too late to stop the positive yardage. (more…)

Canyon Lake could not muster the energy to beat Navarro last Tuesday night at the Hawk Gym.

The loss gives Canyon Lake a large hole to dig out of for the remainder of the season.

Winning out and getting some help from some other teams will need to be the formula for the Hawks to muster enough wins to make the post season.

“We played like this the first time we played Navarro,” Head Coach Nicole Creek surmised. “At least we took one game from them last time.”

Bracken Christian got back at Kerrville OLH on Saturday with a three game sweep, 25-18, 25-21, and 25-19.

Just a couple of weeks ago this same Warriors team was beaten in Kerrville after enjoying substantial leads in two of the games. The ability of not finishing was their downfall.

Jump up the calendar from that dreadful night and you will see a team that now enjoys a five game district winning streak and is tied for first place.

The Warriors are now starting their second round through district and are jockeying for playoff seeding.
